Why do so many topical creams and serums contain Vitamin C? Because of the anti-aging properties of this essential nutrient.

Inside the body, Vitamin C plays a vital role in regulating the synthesis of collagen. Collagen acts as a form of scaffolding, keeping the skin firm and taut. However, by the age of 40, we may have lost up to 30% of the collagen we had in our youth. That which is produced is of lower quality. A noticeable, visible sign of this collagen erosion is wrinkling and sagging.

Unfortunately, clinical evidence on the efficacy of Vitamin C applied topically to improve the appearance of the skin is inconclusive.

However, Vitamin C still has a vital role to play in improving the appearance and feel of skin.

Afterall, doesn’t beauty begin on the inside? Science would agree! Because a recent clinical trial found that:

Participants taking 1000mg of liposomal Vitamin C in oral form significantly improved their skin elasticity over the 4-week period of the clinical trial.

The study also found that:

Participants using 1000mg liposomal Vitamin C improved skin firmness and elasticity by 32.7% over the same period. After just 14 days, skin firmness and elasticity had already improved by 15.1% (over 1% a day on average).

Liposomal Vitamin C is a liquid form of ascorbic acid which ensures the user experiences maximum Vitamin C absorption for maximum benefit.

Leading the field in the UK is Vita-C – the 1000mg liposomal Vitamin C from Health & Wealth.

Unlike traditional pills or tablets, where upto 85% of the nutrient doesn’t make it past your body’s digestive process, Vita-C’s liposomal Vitamin C provides maximum bioavailability of this crucial vitamin. Not only does this have an enormous positive impact on collagen production – with the associated benefits to hair, skin and nails – but also to the reduction of tiredness and fatigue, and immune system support.

In addition, Vita-C’s liposmal Vitamin C is an anti-oxidative defence mechanism, minimizing the impact of free radicals’ cellular damage.

Vita-C’s liposomal formulation delivers only natural Vitamin C. Each serving provides 1000mg of ascorbic Vitamin C – the type found naturally in foods – derived from sunflowers.
